Bug#388701: Why Beryl has just four packages?
I've stopped Beryl for now since they are officially merging with compiz. I need to speak to the compiz maintainer. I have 0.2.1 in a local git repository but im likely just going to chuck it out. With the merge its moot now. - Original Message From: Kurt Roeckx <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Shawn Starr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Anibal Avelar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, April 22, 2007 5:38:39 AM Subject: Bug#388701: Why Beryl has just four packages?

Firstly, the beryl packages were REJECTED because of license issues. Upstream is working with me on resolving the non-free/license issues that remain these will be fixed for the 0.2.0 stable release of Beryl (coming soon). > I know beryl has another packages: > > beryl-dbus > beryl-manager > > and optionally: > > emerald-themes > aquamarine > heliodor emerald-themes is not needed as the themes are available from emerald. Plus we cannot confirm the licenses of the themes at this time. Aquamarine is completed again, copyright issues need to be resolved (minor). Heliodor I won't be including, gtk-window-decorator from compiz is the same thing and will work with beryl (im not sure of metacity themes as there are issues with this) > Do you have plans for the others packages? > > Because, I have been waiting from the begining those packages, I built > my own packages [2] and I uploaded them in my unofficial Debian > repository: > > deb http://fixxxer.cc/debian unstable/ > deb-src http://fixxxer.cc/debian unstable/ > > I have built five packages: beryl, beryl-manager, beryl-plugins, > beryl-settings and emerald from the 0.1.4 version.

You can find the current work on git.debian.org as mentioned, when 0.2 gold is out we will have all copyright/license issues resolved finally. One important thing is the that beryl 0.1.4 has icons that are non-free (from the tango project) and these will be removed in beryl 0.2.0 as upstream has told me. Otherwise, beryl would have to go into non-free. > Regards > > > [1] http://ftp-master.debian.org/new.html > [2] http://fixxxer.cc/debian/unstable/ Thanks, Shawn. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#388701: Beryl in NEW
Mind if some FTP masters would look at this soon. I'd like to get this into unstable before Beryl 0.2.0 comes out.

Bug#388701: still no beryl for Debian?
I believe you can find the debian package configs in git.debian.org. You might want to speak to David Nusinow for more info. I've asked him to double check to see if my debian configurations are good enough. Otherwise additional changes will be needed. Thanks, Shawn.

Bug#388701: still no beryl for Debian?
This is in progress. We've just moved things to git. I have 0.1.3 done, and just finished 0.1.4. I am awaiting a DD to upload 0.1.3 to experimental then 0.1.4 shortly after as the changes were minimal to fix. Thanks, Shawn.

Bug#388701: status of packaging?
I am curently waiting for Beryl 0.1.2 to be frozen. They are currently not ready so I am waiting. Also, the debian configurations they use are not ok. We do not use cdbs and I need to make many changes to remove things like Mesa out of beryl-core. All the work is being done in the Debian X-Strike Force team. Thanks, Shawn. - Original Message From: Patrick To: 388701 Sent: Tuesday, November 7, 2006 8:44:26 AM Subject: Bug#388701: status of packaging? Hello, how far is the process of packaging really? I checked out most recent subversion repo of the 'Beryl project'. I am asking, because I am interested in debianizing it aswell, tho you filled a wnpp report that's why I am contacting you via the BTS. It seems as if the debian-specific files in the svn-repo do work, so if any further attendance for packaging is needed, herewith I offer my help / co-maintainership. Any further confirmation about a schedule or ETA would be appreciated. regards, Patrick -- OPs: #debian & #ubuntu| Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] @ irc.quakenet.org| GPG: 1024D/E037DDA3
